Spoiler! :
Okay it seems my ambition got a little ahead of me when planning this. Non linier stories, complex strategy, and massive sprawling battles are all much easier said than done. I've just not had the time or motivation to get it all to the level I'd have liked to.
That said I have made significant additions and improvements over the past month & the feedback I got back from the test run was fairly positive. I feel have enough now to begin a proper campaign, even if it is shorter and less ambitious than I'd originally planned.

We begin where any good RPG should, with character selection and customisation.
If you are interested in taking part please state which avatar you would like to play, assign them up to 40 skill points in the categories listed (15 max per category), and select 4 feats from the class trees at the bottom. Your characters begin at level 3, so you may only select feats that are on or below the 3rd row on the chart.
